Does Jesus command believers to own weapons? Luke 22 explained.

In Luke chapter 22 Christ tells his disciples to sell their cloaks and buy a sword. Some preachers and assemblies use these verses to make the claim that Jesus commands all believers to be armed. Yet in the account, when the disciples responded that they had 2 swords, Christ told them that it was enough. If we are all commanded to own and carry weapons when why did only 2 of the disciples need a sword and not all of them? A few other verses explain exactly why Christ made this command and I cover them in this short teaching.

Welcome to my new series titled "Exposing false doctrines". I pray that this short study edifies you and I pray that I will continue making more videos in this series as the Holy Spirit leads me.

During the teaching, I quoted the following proverb which was also quoted by Bruce Lee in an interview.

“It is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war.”
― Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five Rings
